Default New Times!

11.621@117.819 @ Sea level :party:

This is on 315 drag radials with about 24psi. I was about to lower it but ran out of time. Not launching as hard as it can due to traction.

Thanks. If anyone is looking for a very clean shop that knows what they are doing, and provided great turn-around time when needed, look at 21MC (www.21stcenturymusclecars.com), the authorized LPE perfromance center near Dallas. John Page was great, and their prices are better then many would expect with anything that has LPE on it :D

I gained 1tenth and 1MPH by loweringh it from 28psi to 24, was about to do 20 and 15 and launch closer to the stall, but the track closed 30 minutes early.

Still, not bad for a 100% legal, down to the cats, A4 :D
